A Nellie Thank You

I've got myself in a bit of pickle where I've agree to stuff that all needed to ready at the same time but I'm now seeing the light of day, it would help if I was much better organised.
One of things I agreed to was being a Guest at Everybody Art Challenge which I have loved doing. This is my last week and the challenge is Thanks, so this sweet Nellie is sending a thank you letter.
I've seen someone at Christmas using this nestability frame as a book and I just had to have a go. I've a tiny Postcard stamp but do you think I could find it most annoyed it's so tiny its probably in a SAFE place. The papers are Wister Basic Grey, love my lattice punch and the flowers are from Wild Orchid, just wish I could make fab corsages like Tabs and Bev, the sentiment is Hero Arts. Just wouldn't be one of my cards if there wasn't a bit of ribbon somewhere.
So last night we went and had a meal at Jamie's Italian in Guildford in what used to be my bank, the food was good although by the time we waited for them to go downstairs and back again with DD food and the chips we had to start ours because it was already going cold, the service was efficient the poor girl was rushed off her feet even on a Monday. But I going to refer Jamies as the Aldi of restaurants keep it basic and pack it high, what do I mean by that, well it was really cosy you were so closed to your neighbour you could lean over and eat off their plate. The space for getting in and out was so small even my DS had to turn sideways to get out and there's not an ounce of fat on him.
